Go Class: 08 Functions, Parameters & Defer

This segment covers functions, which in Go are first-class objects, and explains how function parameters are passed (both in how we think of them, and how they actually work underneath). It also introduces the defer statement which is how we can ensure that actions are taken as a function exits (such as closing a file or unlocking a mutex).
